Practice Wildfire Safety

People start most wildfires - find out how you can
promote and practice wildfire safety.

Make sure that fire vehicles can get to your home. Clearly mark all driveway
entrances and display your name and address.

Report hazardous conditions that could cause a wildfire.

Teach children about fire safety. Keep matches out of their reach.

Post fire emergency telephone numbers.

Ensure adequate accessibility by large fire vehicles to your property.

Plan several escape routes away from your home - by car and by foot.

Talk to your neighbors about wildfire safety. Plan how the neighborhood could
work together after a wildfire. Make a list of your neighbors' skills such as medical or technical. Consider how you could help neighbors who have special needs such as elderly or disabled persons.
Make plans to take care of children who may be on their own if parents can't get home.

Warning Sirens

For the safety of the community, Crystal Lakes Associations has evacuations sirens posted throughout the Association. The evacuation siren in case of failure of the dam is located near the Wapiti
Mailsheds to cover the floodplain area and sounds like this (whoop sound) -- property owners in the floodplain should evacuate immediately if they hear this siren; all
other property owners should remain on their lots, to keep the roads clear for those evacuating the floodplain. Sirens in ALL parts of the association will sound the fire evacuation siren if a
wildfire threatens the community -- it sounds like this (alert sound) -- ALL property owners
should evacuate IMMEDIATELY if they hear this siren. Emergency personnel will be on hand to help direct evacuating property owners out of the area.﻿
